2. Product

2.1 Product descriptionDHF boards are board-shaped wood-based materials manufactured with the drying process on the basis of wood fibres, and are primarily used as permeable, thermally insulating, and partially load-bearing planking in roofs and walls. The edges of the board are fitted with tongue and groove. The average data reflects the specific production situation for DHF boards for a density of 625 kg/m³. Data collection focuses on the production stages fibre processing, DHF board production, finishing, packaging, and shipping.

2.2 ApplicationDHF boards fulfil requirements as type UDP-A rigid underlays according to and the directive of the Central Association of German Roofers (ZVDH), and, where needed, are used as makeshift roof covering. According to permit /Z-9.1-454/ of the German Institute for Construction Technology (DIBt), they are used as permeable and, where applicable, load-bearing outer planking in hazard class 0 according to /DIN 68800-2/ for roof and exterior wall structures.

2.4 Placing on the market / Application rulesRegulation (EU) no. 305/2011 of 9 March 2011 applies to bringing the product into circulation in the EU. The products require a declaration of performance according to /EN 13986:2004 Wood-based panels for use in construction – Characteristics, evaluation of conformity and marking/ and /EN 14964:2006 Rigid underlays for discontinuous roofing - Definitions and characteristics/ and the CE marking. Relevant national regulations apply to use, in Germany the general building permit /Z-9.1-454/.DHF boards are board-shaped wood-based materials according to /EN 622-5 (board type MDF.RWH)/.DHF boards may be used in load-bearing and stiffening components (wall sheathing located outside or roof formwork) or interlocked rigid underlays in the roof and exterior wall areas.

2.5 Delivery status

2.6 Base materials / Ancillary materials DHF boards with a thickness between 12 and 20 mm and an average density of 600-650 kg/m³ consisting of (information in weight % per 1 m³ of production):- wood fibres approximately 88%- water approximately 5-7%- PMDI glue approximately 4%- paraffin wax emulsion <1%- additiveWood mass: Decorticated, fresh wood from forest thinnings as well as sawmill waste, main wood type spruce and pine, are used exclusively for the production of DHF boards.PMDI (polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate) glue: Here MDI (Diphenyl methane – Di isocyanate), a poly urea pre-product is used, which during the board production is transformed into PUR (polyurethane) and poly urea. These serve the purpose of bonding the wood fibres.Wax emulsion: A paraffin wax emulsion is added to the recipe as a water repellent (improves waterproofing).Separating agent: Separating agent to avoid caking on the pressure plate. 2.7 ManufactureDebarked logs as well as wood chips are crushed to a defined size and then cooked in a high pressure cooker and turned into wood fibres with grinding discs. These wood fibres are coated with glue and strewn in a continuously working dispersing station to form a continuous fibre mat. This mat is then continuously transported through a continuous hot press, and thus

constantly compressed to the desired final thickness. After the press, the continuous board strand is cut to the required raw board size and cooled in large star coolers to room temperature. The boards are then cut to final size during finishing and fitted with tongue and groove profiles, packaged, and stored for shipping.The production includes the following process stages: 1. Peeling logs2. Chipping the wood to produce chips and wood chips3. Cooking the chips and wood chips4. Defibration in the refiner5. Drying the fibres to approximately 2 – 3 % residual moisture6. Application of resin to the fibres7. Spreading the glue-coated fibres onto a forming belt8. Compression of the fibre mat in a continuously operating hot press9. Cutting and trimming the fibre strand into raw board formats10. Cooling the rawboards in star coolers11. Piling into large stacks12. Finishing/tongue and groove fitting All waste generated in the course of production (trimming and milling waste) is used thermally with no exceptions.

2.8 Environment and health during manufacturing

Measures to prevent injuries to health / health encumbrances during the manufacturing process: Due to the manufacturing conditions no measures for health protection are necessary over and above the legislative and other regulations. Every area of the facility performs significantly below MAC values (maximum allowable concentration - /MAC and BEL values list 2014/).Air: The exhaust air that is created in relation to the product is purified according to the legislative regulations. Emission values are substantially below the TA Air regulation.Water/soil: There is no impact on water or soil. Production related waste water is reprocessed internally to a large degree (80%) and reused in the production. Noise protection measurements showed that all the values determined within and outside of the production plant were far below the minimum requirements applicable for Germany. Noise intensive plant components such as the chip removal are accordingly encapsulated through structural measures.The Wismar plant holds a certificate for efficient energy management according to /ISO 50001/ issued by TÜV Nord in 01-2012.

2.9 Product processing/InstallationDHF boards can be sawed and drilled with regular (electrical) machines. Hard metal tipped tools are recommended, particularly in the case of circular saws. Wear a respiratory mask if using hand tools without a dust extraction device. Extensive information and processing recommendations are available under www.egger.com/bauprodukte.

2.10 PackagingUnderlays made of wood material strips, cardboard, steel bands and recyclable PE films (only tongue and

groove boards) are used for transport packaging from the plant.

2.11 Condition of useIngredients in utilisation state:The component materials of EGGER DHF comply in terms of their proportions to those of the basic material composition described in section 1 "Basic materials”. The boards can be used in applications of service class 2 (wet area) according to /EN 1995-1-1/.

2.12 Environment and health during useThere are no health hazards or effects to be expected from normal use, i.e. in accordance with the intended uses of EGGER DHF.Hazards for water, air/atmosphere and the soil cannot result through the utilisation of EGGER DHF as designated.

2.13 Reference service lifeDHF boards in construction have a service life of 50 years on average /BMVBS 2011/. (No calculation was performed according to ISO 15686 /ISO 15686/). Influences on ageing when applied in accordance with the rules of technology.2.14 Extraordinary effects

FireSmoke gas formation/smoke density: according to the smoke formation and smoke density of solid wood.Toxicity of fire gases: Under certain fire conditions, hydrogen cyanide (prussic acid), apart from the usual fire gases, may be released from the PMDI resins contained in the boards as a result of the transformation process during combustion. Due to the toxicity of the fumes that are produced, waste portions of the stated products must be combusted in enclosed, specifically approved systems and never in any type of open fire.Change of the aggregate state (burning drip off/fall off): Dripping of burning parts is impossible because EGGER DHF boards do not liquefy when hot.

/EN 13501-1/

WaterNo hazardous water contaminants are washed out (see Eluate analysis, EOX). DHF boards are not resistant to continuous water influence, damaged parts, however, can easily be locally replaced following, for example, limited flood exposure.

Mechanical destructionThe breaking pattern of EGGER DHF displays a relatively brittle behaviour in which small smooth breaking surfaces occur on the broken edges of the boards.

2.15 Re-use phaseReuseIf selectively removed after renovation or end of use in a building, DHF boards fastened with screw connections can be simply collected separately and reused for the same application or other purposes than the original application in the case of selective dismantling.Exceptions to this are boards that have been bonded over their surface.Reclamation for energy generation (in approved facilities): With the high average calorific value of approximately 16 MJ/kg (depending on board moisture) an energy utilisation for the generation of process energy and electricity (combined heat and energy power plants) from board residues from the construction site as well as from demolition measures are to be preferred over dumping.

2.16 DisposalIncidental residuals of DHF boards should first be guided towards material recycling. If this is not possible they must be utilised for energy generation instead of dumping (waste material key according to /EAK European waste material catalogue: 170201/030103).Transport packaging materials can be collected separately and recycled appropriately. In some cases, external disposal can be arranged with the manufacturer.

3. LCA: Calculation rules

3.1 Declared UnitThe declaration relates to the manufacture of one cubic meter of DHF board.DHF boards have an average density of 625 kg/m³.

Specification of the declared unitName Value UnitDeclared unit 1 m3

Conversion factor to 1 kg 0.0016 -Mass reference 625 kg/m3

3.2 System boundaryThe systems therefore encompass the following stages according to /EN 15804/: Product stage (module A1-A3):

A1 Procurement and processing of raw materials as well as processing of secondary raw materials serving as inputs

A2 Transportation to the manufacturer, A3 Production

Once the product has reached the end-of-waste status as chipped scrap wood, it is assumed that the product will be transferred to biomass incineration for the production of thermal and electrical energy. The resulting effects and credits are declared in module D.

5 Environmental Product Declaration Fritz EGGER GmbH & Co. OG – EGGER DHF

3.3 Estimates and assumptionsThe net flows are computed by subtracting from the total product mass (625 kg/m³) the mass that could theoretically be used in A1-A3 as waste wood for energy supply. In the case of DHF boards, this results in a total of 322 kg atro (absolute dry) waste wood during the production phase. This mass may theoretically be recycled in module A1-A3 at the end of the board service life. Therefore, only the calculated net flow reaches module D.

3.4 Cut-off criteriaAll data from the operational data acquisition has been taken into account. Therefore, material flows with a proportion of less than 1 percent were also included in the assessment. It can therefore be assumed that the sum of disregarded processes does not exceed 5 % of the impact categories and cut-off criteria according to /EN 15804/ are fulfilled.

3.5 Background dataAll relevant background datasets were taken from the database of the /GaBi 6/ software (GABI 6 2013), which is not older than 10 years. The data used have been collected subject to consistent time and methodology constraints.

3.6 Data qualityFor the products under review, the data were collected directly at the production site for the 2012/13 business year based on a questionnaire prepared by PE International, the consulting company. The input and output data were provided by EGGER and reviewed for plausibility. It can therefore be assumed that the data is highly representative.

3.7 Period under reviewAll primary data from the 2012/13 EGGER operational data collection were taken into account, i.e., all starting

materials used in the composition, the energy needs, and all direct production waste were included in the assessment. Actual transport distances and transport means (L:truck, S:tractor, Z:train) were applied for inputs and outputs.

3.8 AllocationEnergy credits for the electricity and thermal energy produced in the biomass power plant at the end of the life cycle are allocated according to the heating value of the inputs and based on the efficiency of the plant. The credit for thermal energy is calculated based on the dataset "EU27: Thermal energy from natural gas PE “; the credit for the electricity from the data set "EU27: CurrentMix PE“. The calculation of the emissions dependent on the input (e.g., CO2, HCl, SO2 or heavy metals) at the end of life was performed according to the material composition of the introduced ranges. The technology-dependent emissions (e.g. CO) are allocated according to the exhaust emission quantity. All waste materials were also added to production. The pre-chain for harvesting was recorded according to /Hasch 2002/ as amended by Rüter and Albrecht (2007). As regards residual sawmill wood, the forestry process and associated transport are added to wood according to volume proportion (respectively dry mass), from the sawmill processes no encumbrances are added to residual sawmill wood. A calculation key is applied in the manufacturer's controlling in order to mark off material flows from other products manufactured in the plant. The respective input and output flows are attributed to the products by volume.

3.9 ComparabilityBasically, a comparison or an evaluation of EPD data is only possible if all the data sets to be compared were created according to /EN 15804/ and the building context, respectively the product-specific characteristics of performance, are taken into account.

4. LCA: Scenarios and additional technical information

The end of life cycle assumes the thermal use of DHF boards as secondary fuel, given that wood-based materials reach the end of the waste status after removal from the building. The thermal use is modelled on a 100% processing rate of DHF boards. This scenario represents an assumption. When using the data set in the context of the building, it is necessary to assume a realistic processing rate. At end of life, DHF boards are burned in a biomass power plant which corresponds to the EU average. Therefore, emission factors, current decoupling, and efficiency are adapted to the EU average.

7 Environmental Product Declaration Fritz EGGER GmbH & Co. OG – EGGER DHF

The abiotic consumption of elementary resources is mainly dominated by raw material supply (90%). The adhesive system used in fibre processing plays an important role in this regard. 95 % of the abiotic consumption of fossil resources (ADP fossil) is based on raw material supply. The use of non-renewable resources such as crude oil (54%), natural gas (37%), and coal (5%) or lignite (4%) represents the main drivers of this environmental category. The acidification potential is caused to a great degree by the process emissions of the DHF boards production. These are inorganic emissions into the air. Nitric oxide (85%) represents a main driver of the acidification potential, which arises to a great extent during fibre processing. In addition, nitrogen oxides contribute with 9% to acidification. The eutrophication potential is also dominated by process emissions. In this respect, emissions in the air (99%) play a key role. Analogous to the acidification potential, the eutrophication potential is significantly influenced by inorganic emissions, such as nitric oxide (79%) and laughing gas (11%). Nitric oxide is formed primarily during

fibre processing, while laughing gas is emitted during board production. The greenhouse potential acquires an important position, because the sequestration of carbon in the wood leads to negative values. The storage of carbon during tree growth is reflected in the raw material supply. The main drivers of global warming are process emissions (10% of impact). CO2 emissions during fibre processing play an important role here. 83 % of the ozone depletion potential is caused by raw material supply. R114 (dichlorotetrafluoroethane) and R22 (dichlorofluoromethane) are organic emissions into the air, representing the main cause of the ozone depletion potential of 1m³ DHF boards. These emissions occur primarily in the pre-chains of the adhesive systems, wood chips, and current used during fibre processing. 96% of the photo-oxidant generation occurring during the production of 1 m³ DHF board can be traced back to process emissions. This impact category is influenced by organic emissions into the air, which can be traced back almost exclusively to the formaldehyde emissions during fibre processing.

8 Environmental Product Declaration Fritz EGGER GmbH & Co. OG – EGGER DHF

The illustration (see above) shows the main impact factors of the primary energy needs of DHF boards. 95 % of the primary energy consumption of non-renewable fuels is due to raw material supply, as well as the pre-chains of raw materials. Primarily, raw materials (98%) used during fibre processing have a significant impact on the results. 53 % of the needs of primary energy from non-renewable resources in the production of 1m³ DHF board originate from the glue system, 19% from the use of wood chips, 16% from the emulsion, 3% from the use of round timber, and 3% from the separating agent. 63 % of the needs of primary energy from renewable fuels are due to raw material supply, 20% to the use of thermal energy, and 14% to power requirements. Current and thermal energy are supplied by the plant's

own combined heat and energy power systems, which use a substantial portion of biomass, and, therefore, largely renewable fuels. The need of renewable fuels for raw material supply is due to a great extent to the use of wood chips as well as round timber supply. 0.753m³ of water is consumed for 1m³ DHF board during the product stage (module A1-A3) and for the end-of-life (module D) 1.14m³ are calculated. During production, water consumption mainly occurs during fibre processing. The pre-chains of the adhesive system (81%) and the wood chips (33%) have a great impact. The waste generated during DHF production is dominated by disposed non-hazardous waste. Hazardous waste for the landfill and disposed, radioactive waste have a marginal role in this case.

7.4 Toxicity of the fire gasesMeasurement authority: Energie- und Prozesstechnik Aachen GmbH, Department of Flue Gas TechnologyTest report: 16/2014 for DHF boards material number B4061603Date: 04.06.2014 Result: The toxic fumes were determined according to /DIN 4102 Part 1/ - Class A at 400°C. The testing was done according to the PA-III Decision 22/1 by covering the lateral edges. A relative weight loss of 61.7% of the sample was revealed at a test temperature of 400°C. There was dense white smoke in the inhalation room at the end of the test. The results show that, under the selected experimental conditions, at a temperature of 400°C, no chlorine compounds (HCl detection limit 1 ppm) and no sulphur compounds (SO2 detection limit 1 ppm) could be identified. After 30 minutes, 30,000 ppm carbon monoxide were measured in the inhalation room, all other chemical compounds could not be identified during this interval. After 60 minutes, the concentrations in the inhalation room were as follows: Carbon monoxide 50,000 ppm, carbon dioxide 20,000 ppm, hydrogen cyanide 10 ppm. Hydrochloric acid and sulphur dioxide could not be identified.

The hydrocyanic acid concentration (HCN detection limit 2 ppm) corresponds to the concentration as emitted by wood under the same conditions.The gaseous emission released under the selected experimental conditions correspond largely to the emissions released by wood under the same conditions. 7.5 VOCDHF boards are used exclusively for outer planking, undercovers located outside – no test. 7.6 Lindane/PCPMeasurement authority: WKI Wilhelm-Klauditz-Institut - Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, Braunschweig Test report: QA-2013-1627 External monitoring of the PCP and lindane content of Date: 30.07.2013Result: /PA-C-12:2006-02/ "Determination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and g-hexachlor-cyclohexan (lindane) in wood and wood-based materials": After extracting the substances contained, the solutions were derivatised, prepared and then analysed using gas-phase chromatography method. The values for PCP and lindane are below the detection limit of 0.1 mg/kg.
